A further seven women have won each Grand Slam singles title at least once in their careers (known as the career Grand Slam): Doris Hart, Shirley Fry, Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova, with Navratilova (1983-84) and Williams (2002-03, 2014-15) holding all four titles at the same time.

  • Women's Tennis
    ADVANTAG E: Women’s Tennis The ITA Women’s Collegiate Tennis Hall of Fame at William and Mary Celebrates the Legends of the Game By Sara Piccini he first intercollegiate tennis championship for men was held in 1883, with Harvard University’s Joseph Clark winning the Tsingles title. Women would have to wait a few more years for their own championship — 75 more years, to be exact. The long wait can be attributed to a number of factors, including lack of funding and lack of a strong governing body for women’s collegiate sports. And many college officials actively discouraged competition, touting “the spirit of play for its own sake,” concerned that young women couldn’t handle the competitive side of athletics. But women were proving just the opposite on the tennis court. The great champion Helen Wills, for instance, who earned a Phi Beta Kappa key from the University of California at Berkeley in 1925, won 31 Grand Slam titles and two Olympic gold medals during the 1920s and ’30s. Inspired by these female champions, a pioneering group of women and men finally convinced the United States Lawn Tennis Association (now the USTA) to sponsor the first women’s intercollegiate champi - onship in 1958. Darlene Hard of Pomona College in California won the singles title. The following year, William and Mary’s own Donna Floyd Fales ’62 captured the singles title. Benefactors Betsy Nagelsen and the late Mark McCormack ’51, L.H.D. ’97 Women also had to wait a little longer for their own collegiate tennis with Hall of Fame Curator Millie West, honorary alumna.

  • Maureen Connolly
    San Diego’s Sweetheart: Maureen Connolly Joey Seymour “I’ve got everything I want. Everything I’ve had, I got through tennis. It gave me a terribly exciting life. I met so many people in exalted positions. It opened so many doors and it’s still opening them. I’ve had a wonderful life. If I should leave tomorrow, I’ve had the experience of 20 people.”1 – Maureen Connolly Maureen Connolly was nationally recognized as a tennis star from San Diego in the 1950s. At age eleven, she was dubbed “Little Mo” by San Diego sports writer Nelson Fisher who claimed that her power forehand and backhand had the same firepower as the big guns of the USS Missouri, known as the “Big Mo.”2 The Associated Press named her Female Athlete of the Year for three consecutive years (1952, 1953, and 1954), an honor she achieved by developing a particularly aggressive style of play. After her career came to a crashing halt on July 20, 1954, when she was thrown from her horse, “Little Mo” continued to pack a great deal into her life. She frequently told people, “I’ve lived ten lives.” She was a tennis champion, newspaper reporter and author, wife, mother, restaurateur, sporting- goods spokeswoman, television and radio color commentator, philanthropist, and cancer victim, before dying at age thirty-four. The following article provides a retrospective look at the many lives of Maureen Sixteen year-old Maureen Connolly practices at a public tennis court in Connolly.

  • MINORITY TENNIS – a HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE by Bob Davis PART I the BEGINNING
    SYMBOLS OF CHANGE MINORITY TENNIS – A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE By Bob Davis PART I THE BEGINNING Slavery was abolished in the United States in 1865. Nearly 15 years later, in 1880, the United States Lawn Tennis Association (USLTA) was founded (The name was later changed to USTA). Tennis was the dominion of the white, upper class and Blacks were neither interested, nor invited to participate. Segregation was rampant throughout America and an attitude of exclusion was pervasive in most areas of American society. Blacks began to surface on tennis courts in about 1890 at Tuskegee Institute. Booker T. Washington, one of America’s great, black visionaries and leaders, founded Tuskegee. In his famous Atlanta Address of 1895, Booker T. Washington set forth the motivating spirit behind Tuskegee Institute. In a post Reconstruction era marked by growing segregation and disfranchisement of blacks, this spirit was based on what realistically might be achieved in that time and place. "The opportunity to earn a dollar in a factory just now," he observed, "is worth infinitely more than the opportunity to spend a dollar in an opera house." Because of Washington's extraordinary ability to work within the system and to maximize the possible, Tuskegee flourished to the extent only dreamed about when he met his first students on July 4, 1881. By 1898, Blacks began to have inter-club matches with rival black clubs in New York, Philadelphia and a variety of other eastern seaboard cities. These inter-club rivalries were primarily networking opportunities; occasions for the black, college-graduated elite to commune with their colleagues from other cities.

The Grand Slam Tennis Program allows you to see how recent grand slam tennis champions would fair against champions from the past. You can choose from more than 90 former men's grand slam champions and more than 80 former Women's Champions. In addition, you can choose to play the tennis match at the Australian Open, U.S. Open, Wimbledon, or French Open. International tennis matches can also be played, with the option of choosing from many countries around the world. The program is perfect for simulating individual match ups or holding an entire tournament. This is not video graphic game. It is a statistical game based on each former tennis player’s historical success in playing major grand slam singles events. While some players have a higher probability of success, their performance in any particular tournament is still subject to the laws of random probability. For example, a player who has had major success in the French Open is likely to do well in the French Open, but could still lose to a player who has had less historical success in the French Open.
